- Hi, Holger.
- Where is Rupert?

The twins are inside. He and Beatrice
are doing a presentation.

FACE TO FACE

Holger Lang.
What a pleasant surprise.

We're just rounding off
the presentation.

They're seriously considering
moving their headquarters here.

Sounds good.
You won't regret it.

- Can I talk to you for a minute?
- Yeah.

The contract hasn't been signed yet -

- but as you could tell
from our CEO's reaction -

- we won't keep you waiting.
We'll be right back.

- Markus stood us up. He knows their CEO.
- What's up?

- You'll have to show them around.
- I can't.

I need to talk to your brother.
Get them out of here.

- I'm in the dark here. Take over?
- Sure.

That was a short family meeting.
Let me show you around.

I'll be right there.

- That went well.
- I've talked to Otto.

He told me about ComTech
and the contract.

- Okay.
- Okay?

ComTech is not really
my area of responsibility.

You were deeply involved
in the negotiations.

You let Otto sabotage the project, so
you could land a contract with ComTech.

They slipped up at every turn,
and you knew all about it.

I see. So you've finally realized that
the North Harbor building is a disaster.

And you've decided
that I should take the fall for it.

- And Otto told you this?
- Yeah.

Did you consider why
he would point to me?

He wanted to sabotage me,
and you let it happen!

That's not what I asked you.
Maybe Otto has a reason to blame me.

He didn't blame anyone!
He just told me what happened!

Right.
I'm glad you trust your friends.

But you should know
what he's doing in his spare time.

Your pal Otto.

- What's this?
- Texts from Otto to Beatrice. Look.

She got a text,
and I read the first line.

"Isn't it about time
you got fucked hard?"

- I had to document it.
- Filthy stuff.

- You should see the pictures.
- No! How long has this been going on?

Her messages only date back two years.

- And she doesn't know you've seen them.
- No.

She didn't want us to know.
Bea never plays the victim.

- But you confronted Otto.
- Right.

- What did he say?
- He denied it.

But when I showed him this,
he made a long, rambling excuse.

That wasn't the end of it.

All my cars, motorcycles and bikes
in front of my apartment -

- have had scratches
and slashed tires ever since that day.

I confronted him,
but he denied that as well.

Why didn't you say anything?
I would've fired him!

Your best friend for 40 years?!

Maybe you would.

We didn't want to ask our big brother
for help again. We handled it ourselves.

But you didn't handle it.

You don't want people to think you got
special treatment? That ship has sailed.

There it is again.
Thanks.

We're only here because of you, right?
I know exactly what people think -

- and that's why Beatrice and I
are always well prepared.

Today, both you and Markus
should've been there -

- but we took care of it
without your help.

You sound bitter.
Are you?

Is that why you want to get rid of me?

Did your hunger for respect
get Christina killed?

- She killed herself.
- She was murdered.

Markus hired a hit man.

- So now Markus had her killed?
- Because you gave him the order.

- Are you accusing me of murder?
- Yes.

I know you don't respect me,
but to actually ...

- Don't walk away from me!
- Take it easy.

You want to take over,
but you're so blatantly incompetent -

- that you have to stab me in the back.

Why would I have Christina killed?

- She got in the way.
- Of what?

She was just part of
your midlife crisis!

And like I said,
Otto and I hate each other!

You didn't deal with him directly.
Markus was your middleman.

Think about it!
According to your absurd theory -

- I colluded
with two people I'd never work with!

We have a corporate profit
of three billion.

Wouldn't you make an unholy alliance
to gain control of this moneymaker?

That's what I mean.
To make an alliance, you need trust -

- and Markus can't be trusted!
He's completely irrational.

- Oh, really?
- Yeah.

- He left Beatrice to drown.
- What?

Do you remember Sweden? He pushed
Bea's boat away from the shore.

Not that story again.
He saved her life, God damn it!

He left her
because he thought it was funny. Right?

She could've died. I'll say it again
since your age has caught up to you.

Markus would never
make an alliance with me.

A minute ago, you said that
you'd never make an alliance with him.

Make up your mind.

- The feeling's mutual.
- What does that mean?

What does it mean
that the feeling is mutual, Rupert?

How do you know that Markus
would never make an alliance with you?

I'll show you
the last text I got from Markus -

- two weeks ago.
Alright?

I'll show you.
"Hello, you smug, little nobody."

"I won't mention your plans to Holger.
Lucky you."

"But I expect you to wire
this year's dividend to me. Ciao, M."

I wanted him to participate
in a vote of no confidence against you.

But he refused.

He blackmailed you,
and you crawled back into your shell.

You're so pathetic.

You're completely helpless.

I don't think they took the bait.

A policeman's waiting at the reception.
He wants to talk to Markus.

- The police? Did you call them?
- No.

- Do you know where he is?
- No.

It's from the restaurant.
They found Markus's car keys.

- Since when does he leave his Porsche?
- Ask Martin. That sounds weird.

I'll go talk to the police.

Wait.

We ...

The company's under attack.
We need more information.

Under attack?
By whom?

Holger has exposed my plan to sabotage
the North Harbor building via ComTech.

How does Markus fit into this?

Holger also revealed
that Markus had Christina murdered.

- We talked about a lot of things.
- He murdered Christina? Okay.

- I thought she killed herself.
- Do you think it's funny?

- No.
- No, it's not.

If Markus did that, we have to stop him
and notify the police.

We can't talk to the police yet.

- Why not?
- Because ...

Because Markus is dead.

He's not dead. He just
went off the grid. We'll find him.

We had a fight.

He attacked me.

I had to defend myself,
and he fell down.

From the top of the stairs
by the restaurant.

Did you kill him?

It was self-defense.

The handrail ...
It was an accident.

Why did you come here?
Why didn't you tell the police?

Did you leave the scene of the crime?

We're accessories to murder.

That's what you think about
when you hear that Markus is dead.

How it affects you.

We're fucked.
It's over.

Relax, God damn it!
Rupert, relax.

You have to turn yourself in. We have
the best attorneys in the country.

- You're not listening to me.
- She's right.

- If we act now, we might have a chance.
- I can't go to the police now.

Do you know what'll happen
if I get arrested?

Our partners will run for the hills.
No one will want an office here.

I'm the only one who can save
the North Harbor building.

If we don't get the shipments, we'll be
bleeding money until we go bankrupt.

- If I go down, you go down.
- So what do you suggest?

We have to stall the police
until we know who's behind this.

- I can't believe this.
- You know I'm right.

To save the company
we have to stick together.

Don't listen to him.

He has a motive for killing Markus.
We'll be covering for a murderer.

Markus could've told me
who's behind this.

I could've found out
who killed Christina.

I'd choose that any day -

- over standing here
and begging for my life!

I have nothing to gain
from Markus's death.

Let me think for a second.

The policeman
is insisting on talking to you.

- Shall I send him over here?
- I need your help.

- Okay. Stall him.
- He was very insistent.

- Stall him!
- Right.

- What are we gonna do?
- Who manipulated with Markus?

We can't help you. You come here
accusing me of wrongdoing -

- while you killed Markus.
You've lost your mind!

It's okay to be emotional.
We'll mourn Markus's death in due time.

- How do you know all this?
- Markus talked to Christina's murderer.

Otto's admitted he sabotaged
the North Harbor building.

And Liz ...

She altered the ComTech contract.

- Liz?
- Yes.

What are we gonna do?

The police can't see
the surveillance footage.

Why can't we just give it to them?

Because it shows me
dragging Markus's body to the basement.

- What? That's what a murderer would do.
- I had to buy time.

- That's what a murderer would say!
- It's all on the surveillance footage.

I shouldn't have left the scene.
But people will see it was an accident.

- So will you.
- Did they find the body?

No, I don't think so.
They asked if he was here.

It's probably just a formality.
Maybe he ran a red light.

But the shit
can very easily hit the fan.

- Would you excuse us for a second?
- Guys, you need to leave. Come on.

Now. Out, please.
Let's go.

Go get the surveillance footage.

- What?
- Get rid of the footage.

- Do you want me to destroy evidence?
- Just the accessible stuff.

We'll still have the cloud backup.
We're not doing anything wrong.

- Erase it.
- Alright.

I'll do it because I trust Beatrice.

Markus and I had issues, but who
found out he was willing to betray me?

- It must've been someone close to us.
- We all saw his disappointment.

- With what?
- Christina.

- Why would he be disappointed with her?
- You gave her a lot of attention.

And you were gonna give her that job.

Job?

I didn't tell anyone about that.

No, but that's
what you were gonna do, right?

It seemed like your relationship
was moving in that direction.

- Only Markus knew about that.
- You're reading too much into it.

Why would Markus tell you
about my plans for Christina?

Unless you put a tail on me,
and Markus answered to you.

I don't know what you're talking about.
He'd never go behind your back.

Maybe if you said
you were protecting me.

Right. Do you think
I'd go to Markus of all people?

- That makes perfect sense.
- Are you referring to Sweden?

You remember. Yes, I'm referring to the
time when he was gonna let me drown.

Let me squash this once and for all.
It's not the trump card you think it is.

He couldn't swim.
He was afraid of water.

- He couldn't save you, so he got help.
- That's not what happened.

Did he force you into the boat
and push it into the lake?

Or did you sail out yourself
to see if he'd follow you?

- If the coast guard hadn't shown up ...
- He called the coast guard!

What's going on here, Beatrice?

Are you gonna harp on the same string
for the rest of your life?

I'm partly responsible for this.

Even though it wasn't true,
it seemed like it could've been.

It fit perfectly into the picture
we'd painted of Markus.

The charming
but cowardly and wimpy problem child.

He took the blame, because he
was always misbehaving anyway.

So we let the story take root.

We rolled our eyes and said,
"That's Markus."

Markus didn't argue.

He'd rather be a horrible brother -

- than a coward who didn't
have the guts to sail out there.

That's the Markus you appealed to.

That Markus, who was eaten up
by shame and self-loathing -

- could be talked into anything if it
could put him in a favorable position.

We're at a crossroads.

Tell me what you did.
What deal you made with Markus -

- what you found out,
and what you're planning.

Otherwise, before I turn myself in,
I'll have the lawyers write a contract -

- that'll prevent you from
ever making money from this company.

And Martin from the reception
will get everything.

Alright.

- Well ...
- Don't.

I did it for the family.

- For the family?
- You spent all your time on Christina!

We have
an unfinished construction project -

- and we can't get anyone
to rent this place!

- I had to know why you weren't here!
- So what did you do exactly?

I had Markus put a tail on Christina
to protect us and the company.

When I found out
what plans you had for her ...

I was worried about
how it would affect me.

What was I supposed to do?

I wasn't supposed to know,
so I couldn't talk to you about it.

And then ... She died
before we got a chance to talk about it.

It was chaos, and we struggled
to keep the company afloat.

She was killed
by the man who was tailing her -

- and you arranged that.

I had Markus dig up information on her,
but I didn't have her killed.

- You had to solve the problem somehow.
- You'd just find a new Christina.

Rupert and I weren't right for the job,
and nothing was gonna change that.

No.

So you set up the thing with Otto
and the contract with ComTech.

You wanted to chuck me
out of the company.

I completely forgot.

I did all that while I ran the company.

That all sounds very convincing.

It does.

But there's just one problem.

You killed Markus.

I believe it was self-defense,
but he's dead, and you fled the scene.

And where are you now?
You're not going to the police.

I'm risking everything to protect you.

My reputation and the company's future.
Everything.

I've told Rupert to get rid of evidence,
so you can continue this ...

I don't even know what to call it.

This pursuit.

If I wanted to destroy you,
I wouldn't have to do shit.

How can I be sure that you won't betray
me as soon as I walk out the door?

I'm sorry, but I can't stall
the policeman any longer.

Send him to my office.
I'll be right there.

Okay.

You're just gonna have to trust me.

I'm not a ruthless person.

Isn't that why you don't want me
in management.

Maybe that's a mistake.

Then who are we looking for?

I don't know. Markus became evasive
after Christina's death.

He used to stop by every week.

We were nice to him, and I think
that made him feel ... like an adult.

I thought he blamed me, but ...

Maybe he was busy. With a plan like
that, he must've had a lot of meetings.

Maybe there's something on his phone,
but I don't know the password.

It's been the same for 15 years. Let's
see if there's anything in his calendar.

What's going on?
I think it's broken.

No, no, no.
I could read his texts earlier.

That's his photos.

What?

Eiffelbar.

Christina's favorite haunt.
What was he doing there?

- There we go.
- That's his calendar.

- That meeting is marked X.
- What the hell is X?

Then it turns off.
Damn it.

- I'll search his car.
- I'll stall the police.

Hey.
You need this to unlock the car.

Holger Lang?

Just the man I'm looking for.

Richard.
